Check out 215/60/16 in Continental CC5. They are very soft compared to the other two and give much better comfort. If not, then both Michelin and Yokohama are very good as well.

What video format do you use?

[itsgumbys]

Hello I have a question regarding oriel navigation.
I have audio and video files on USB, when I connect it and switch mode to USB then it only shows audio files and do not play video. However when I connect USB through 3G port then I can play videos through video mode option.
Is there any way I can play both audio nd video through USB ?

I spoke to tracking world for this and as per them this is the only option to use 3G port to play both audio and video. If you use smart USB port only audio files will appear and those even in USB folder and not audio player.

how can i play audio when i plug it in 3G port ?

[itsgumbys]

No true as i've both types of files in USB which i use to play everytime & no such issue. maybe video format which your fules are in, is not supported. try to copy in some other format

can you name the format of video file which you are able to play via USB port ?

What is your reasoning to increase to 225? You may get slightly better grip, sure, but fuel consumption increases. Also its not stock 195 like in corolla, The grip from 215 from 225 may be negligible.
Nonetheless, Michelin comes from 2 countries. Made in Germany is recommended as tire is softer compared to Michelin Thailand. Yokohama is Japanese, while Continental is Malaysia.
I got the Michelin Primacy 3 (Germany) in stock size. Grip, noise and balance are noticeably better than BG luxo crap tires.
In closing, I would recommend Michelin Germany in 215. Unless you want to go for 17 inch rims, which would be the best bet, but 2 year warranty will be voided, or so I have heard.

Hello everyone. I'm sure this question must have been answered many times here. My 1.8 oriel arrived a few days back and I'm planning to change the tyres to 225. I'm getting Michelin Primacy 3 and Yokohama Advan dB in 225 / 55 / 16. Price difference is not that much. Any suggestions? Thank you.

What price u r getting for both tyres and from where?

[Khurramchauhdary]

Aoa guys.
I need some guidance. When I booked gli I made dd of 5lac for booking than 2nd dd for remaining payment and 3rd at the same time 30k for withholding tax.
Now I booked civic x oriel in feb with the dd of 1350k and going to pay remaining payment tomorrow. I just need to know should I made separate dd for remaining payment and withholding tax like gli or just one single joint dd of whole amount?

Regards

[arkhitekt]

Doesn't matter if its one or multiple. Atleast thats how I paid. The total amount matters

[Khurramchauhdary]

Thanks

[jklodhi]

Separately

[jklodhi]

Bro don't do it as you will regret it. There is no match between Turbo Civic and Grande. Civic X is a very good car. Yes Turbo requires good fuel and that's it. Total HOBC and Hisuper combo is good enough.

Rest it is your choice .

Cheers

[arkhitekt]

Well if someone has gotten a habit of driving Civic X, only then regret part comes into play. And if you haven't driven it you will feel perfectly happy with Grande as well.

Regret is mainly only for those who thoroughly experience driving both. And if you have experienced both and still don't regret thats a result of preference and indifference towards a drive.

To each their own. Everyone has a different perspective.

[bl18z5t0rm]

Withholding tax amount is added in total. So just make a dd for the total remaining amount.

Dear brother.. My suggestion DO NOT CHANGE Tyres as they are General BG LUXO.
My experience I got a Turbo and straight drove it to tyre shop and changed tyres to Good Year default size German Tyres.
I did not like the drive and bump that those tyres produced.

I got another 1.8 oriel and this time I did not change the tyres. The drive is hell lot smoother and no bumps and grip is efficient.

That was my experience.

[Khurramchauhdary]

But I asked from the sales person at dealership and he told me to made it combined. So what to do now?

[arkhitekt]

You probably got expired tyres or there is something specific about the goodyears you got. One of my friends has Yoko Advan 225/55-16, I have Yoko C drives 215/55-16, and one has BG Luxo 215/55-16.

After driving the cars back to back. Unanimously it was evident that BG maybe a good tyre by itself if you don't compare. Meaning they maybe acceptable but compared to the other 2 mentioned they are pathetic. Stopping distances are more with BG, On the same drive same style by the same person on the same roads back to back, ABS kicks in much more, VSA kicks in more frequently and the comfort level is slightly harder as well.

On the contrary another friend got some Michelins (don't remember exactly which ones) and those Michelins turned out to be inferior in ride and comfort while BGs were better. Someone I know got Continentals and is absolutely happy with the decision of changing from BG.

So BG Luxo are not necessarily good tyres or bad tyres. It all depends what specific stock dates, tyre models or size you got. Better get something which has been tried by others or has a good reputation.

Initially, I was also of the idea that BGs are good tyres but my perception changed after shifting to Yokos as immediately I could feel the difference after changing them.

Well, its been around 4 months driving a civic oriel and to me it, it feels quite sluggish. The engine noise is too much at 3000 rom and above. And i dont understand the sports mode gimmick. The car roars like crazy without any power.

And sometimes when i push the pedal hard enough, i feel as if the car is trying hard to gain speed but failing miserably.

[satardr]

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaat i booked few days early and now yar na kar very disappointing

[streetvampz_772]

After driving my oriel for about 2 months i am extremely satisfied with the performance of the car. Its a huge improvement over the 8th gen and 9th gen as far as comfort, acceleration, interior & exterior styling, grip & brakes are concerned. Had installed yoko advan db 225 55 16 on the very first day and the ride is buttery smooth without compromise on grip. The only thing that feels inferior to the previous gens is it's Ac performance. I have tried everything from auto to setting it at 22, 20, 18 but it doesnt feels that effective as that of 9th gen.

[jklodhi]

It seems that you are still not used to CVT drive
